Sean Murray from Hello Games has announced that No Man Sky has been delayed confirming a new release date via PlayStation EU Blog. No Man’s Sky will now launch in North America on August 9, in Europe August 10, and in the UK August 12.

Delays are not a rare within the gaming industry as developers at time require more time to put the final polish on their product before launch. We’ve seen it with Uncharted 4, The Division and many more but that didn’t stop some people from going the extra mile by sending death threats to the developer.

Yes, death threats over a game delay. You can’t get any stupid.

Here’s some tweets from Sean Murray revealing that people have been sending him death threats over the announcement of the game’s delay.

I have received loads of death threats this week, but don't worry, Hello Games now looks like the house from Home Alone #pillowfort
